Hot. Its nice to back up my past runs. 4 10 second passes so far this year. Im ALMOST satisfied.

The bad news....

Coming out of the burnout box @ 8900 in 2nd gear the differential exploded.
So I only got one run in today, but at least it was decent.

Went soft on the car 1st run, lift throttle shifting @ roughly 83-8400 rpm every gear. (8900 normally)

I regret that now, should have went balls out and possibly brought home a 10.4x

BTW im glad that the car didnt lose any mph after adding the cage (75% done, 2 front posts and floor plates left to weld in).

Hot.

Going welded diff? Sent that spacer out this weekend. Im impressed as always.

Dr. D-Series · « **Reply #2 on:** April 19, 2009, 09:30:37 PM »

Might go obx. I feel welded diff is too dangerous with stock axles. The wall hurts.

Any problems towing the car back with the damaged trans?

Dr. D-Series · « **Reply #4 on:** April 19, 2009, 09:45:07 PM »

Nope.

How was the boost today? Solid now, or still dropping off?

An OBX LSD may destabilize you, if you aren't careful. Closely inspect the washers (where the diff pin used to be) and make sure they are arraigned so that they are a little tight when you close the diff up. If you leave them out, or jingling, you may get that sweet unstable side-to-side under power phenomenon. Makes it really hard to hold the car between the lanes.

Awsome time dude

I'd be fucking stoked to run those times on that build.

Joe nice times as always! I have that obx for you, not 100% you will be able to use it but its yours.

Nobody has to be able to afford to do it. All anyone has to do is drive to your house and let you work on something.

d-rail · « **Reply #15 on:** April 20, 2009, 01:36:20 AM »

But on topic good job with the setup man and I can only dream of having as good of a time as you with like 10x the money in mine. Good luck and after I blow my motor to hell and back I'll be looking at you and your progress.

JD, no complaints here on all my installs, the washers are to control noise, not preload.

Anyone know which cable trans have small and large bearings ?

Obx only makes the lsd for 40mm bearings correct ?

BTW thanks guys.

What is your 60 foot?

Dr. D-Series · « **Reply #23 on:** April 20, 2009, 09:30:57 AM »

It went 1.69

Not my best but not bad.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #24 on:** April 20, 2009, 09:31:03 AM »

Chuck, have two at the shop that fight you under power, where before they were stable peg leggers.

turbob16hatch · « **Reply #25 on:** April 20, 2009, 09:39:43 AM »

i thought it was pretty well known that civic's torque steer, mainly d series.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #26 on:** April 20, 2009, 09:44:37 AM »

They don't when there's an intermediate shaft and an alignment involved. Neither of these cars are D-series.

birdley42008 · « **Reply #27 on:** April 20, 2009, 12:43:52 PM »

What gear do you preload in? Atleast 2nd or 3rd correct.

yep, but if you got the dough, quaffie makes the 35mm ones. you should be able to find five 40mm trannys for the price of one quaffie 35mm diff

might have to cross refrence the engine code to the tranny code but hope it helps
